  • What if your baby only likes to eat from a spoon? How can you help your baby eat more independently? It’s fine to use purees if you’re doing baby-led weaning, but we want the baby to be feeding themselves and not the parents force-feeding. In this video I’ll teach you how to do the pre-loaded spoon approach:
    1. Which spoon should you use for baby-led weaning?
    2. How do you pre-load a spoon for baby-led weaning?
    3. How do you progress to more finger foods?
    4. When is it time to size up to a bigger spoon for my baby?

    • @babyledweaning

      Teething usually lasts until your baby is in toddlerhood, so you can keep introducing new foods even when your baby is teething. There may be some days where your baby has less of an appetite than others (just like with us adults 😊) and that's perfectly okay. You can trial out some cooler foods that some babies prefer when they're cutting new teeth, but I also have more teething recommendations on my podcast here blwpodcast.com/episodes/213

    What if your baby won’t eat finger foods at all? My baby gets mad because she wants to actually eat a good amount of food and when she’s eating finger foods she isn’t able to get much in her belly. She also sometimes tries to grab food, but her grasp is so strong that she squishes it everywhere and it never reaches her mouth.

    • @WhimsicalCrochet
      @WhimsicalCrochet Год назад +1

      We do the pre loaded spoon approach but she’s been doing that for a month now, she gets frustrated with finger foods and won’t eat them. She won’t pick them up on her own either, only if I hand it to her.

    • @babyledweaning

      It's totally typical for babies to need time to learn and adjust 💕 It can take up to 8 weeks of practice before babies really get the hang of things, but during this time the majority of their nutrition is still coming from breastmilk/formula to help with the transition 😊

    My son is almost 16months and he doesnt want to feed himself at all. Starts crying immediately when I try to guide the preloaded spoon to his mouth. What can I do? It’s so frustrating!

    • @Jmdh-ku1qc

      Same with my son his 2 years old but he don’t want to eat. sometimes he will just taste the food and throw it away. Almost of the time he will just hold his food and throw it away he never try to taste it or put on his mouth. It’s hard to feed him every day

    • @kaligirl1980

      Same. Mine is 15 months and has no interest in self feeding. He wants us to put everything in his mouth.

      I know I’m late responding here but do what works for your child. It’s so annoying how people make videos with the title “Stop doing this..” They get more views that way. Your mama and you know what’s best for your baby; you can gently expose them to different ways of eating and they will eventually get there. 💛
      Currently, Has eating gotten better for you guys?

    My baby is happy to finger food, but when it comes to foods like oatmeal or Spag Bol, she likes us to feed her. She can use the spoon to feed herself but will never get her hands in to feed and prefers to sit back and for us to spoon feed her. Any tips to get her feeding herself? X

    • @babyledweaning
      @babyledweaning  Год назад

      Older babies can definitely be playing with you a little bit if they know that they don't have to feed themselves and that you will do it for them. I would suggest taking a break from feeding her and go back to using the pre-loaded spoon approach. She might be upset at first, but she will get the hang of it with some practice 💕

    Hello, what can I do when my 7 month old baby cries and gets very angry when I take the spoon out of his hands to preload it with more food?😢

    • @samonlumo6273

      try using 2 spoons.
      fill one and give it to your baby while you prepare the other and swap the two

    I need help, my baby just doesn’t put food in her mouth be it finger food or purée. We have tried fruits, veges, meat, just nothing. She loves drinking water from an open cup though.

    • @babyledweaning
      @babyledweaning  Год назад

      It can take some babies up to 8 weeks before they get the hang of self feeding, don’t give up. I also hold on water til older because it takes up very valuable room in your babies stomach. We do not want to make babies feel artificially full from water when they need the time to learn how to eat food.

    I think babies need to be feed with spoon. Its so confusing. You moms do whatever works. They will eventually learn to eat on their own. NO RUSH
